A year ago, one of the most anticipated video game releases in history was gearing up to be dropped in August with the return of the iconic college football ‘NCAA Football’ series.

It seems like a distant memory now, but the game has been out for over six months and gamers are already looking forward to the 2026 edition which will be released this summer.

This week, the cover for the deluxe edition of the game was leaked and it features some of the biggest names in college football including the Alabama Crimson Tide’s very own superstar wide receiver Ryan Williams:

Williams is standing next to Ohio State wide receiver and fellow young star Jeremiah Smith who may have been the only player in the high school class of 2024 in the country who can match Williams.

Interestingly, the cover also features several of the most prominent coaches in college football in Georgia head coach Kirby Smart and Ohio State head coach Ryan Day.

Beyond Smith and Williams, some of the players included are Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood, Florida quarterback DJ Lagway, LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love, former Alabama and current Ohio State safety Caleb Downs, Arizona State quarterback Sam Leavitt, and South Carolina pass rusher Dylan Stewart.

The game is set to be released sometime in July.
